public abstract class KeyGeneratorSpi extends Object
This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for theKeyGenerator
class. All the abstract methods in this class must be implemented by each cryptographic service provider who wishes to supply the implementation of a key generator for a particular algorithm.- Since:
